Happy birthday, apparently 24 May, 2007 / Comments: 1


This weekend is the 30th birthday of Star Wars, and the 25th birthday of LucasArts is also happening (or possibly: has happened ? nobody really knows).

To celebrate, IGN?s weekly "AFK" podcast is all about the films and the history of LucasArts. They spend a lot of time being nostalgic about Star Wars, but get onto adventure games at the 29 minute mark.

"Oh God, yeah, I do love this genre," says a woman. "And I know it?s dead right now, but, uh, but I love um... Grim Fandango, has to be, hands down, the BEST LucasArts adventure game..."

"Glottis rules," interrupts a husky male voice.

"I?m sorry!?"

"Glottis. Glottis rules."

"Oh yeah, I know," drools the woman. "I love Glottis.?

She then goes on to to describe Manny as a "half-dead detective."

If you want to give the whole thing a listen, head over to the IGN AFK page.

    Remember when both Lucasfilm and LucasArts were going to make a big deal of this and release some game, or something?
